Building the Ugears Roadster VM-01 is as rewarding as it is fun. Assemble pre-cut plywood parts to create a detailed, fully functional mechanical model. The excitement doesn’t stop at assembly - once complete, you’ll want to take this retro-inspired roadster for a test drive and see it in action. This classic wooden sports car is designed with precision and style. Featuring smooth lines, iconic detailing, and Ugears’ signature engineering, it’s a striking display piece for any home or office. Made from a clever combination of 2 mm and 4 mm plywood elements, the body has a streamlined, realistic finish.
Pop the hood to reveal a powerful V8 engine with moving valves. The car’s transmission includes three modes: forward, reverse, and idle, all controlled via the gear lever. A functional steering wheel adjusts direction, while the front suspension adds a touch of realism. Powered by a rubber band motor, the Roadster can travel up to 4 metres on a single wind. The winding key is cleverly disguised as a spare wheel at the back of the vehicle.
This model is more than just a puzzle — it’s an experience. The Roadster is packed with working features that spark the imagination and invite exploration. It’s a great project for solo builders or something to enjoy with family and friends.
Made from high-quality, eco-friendly wood, all parts are pre-cut and ready to assemble with no glue or special tools required. Like all Ugears models, the Roadster VM-01 is built with care and attention to detail — a beautiful combination of craftsmanship, mechanics, and fun.

Hans Jansen –
This is one of the best models I’ve ever made, and I’ve made some. I’m in the seventies and did not find it too difficult. Patients is the clue. I prefer graphite to candle wax as it gets too thick in very small part. Overall I believe graphite works better. Study each page carefully at least twice so that you understand it’s concept. The model and instructions are very professional and am about to buy the windmill. You won’t regret doing one.. Good luck
